BUSINESS owners are already looking ahead and setting goals for the new year. An often-overlooked element of success is organisational design – a strategic approach to structuring teams, workflows and roles within a business to improve efficiency and productivity.
It is key to ensuring a business runs smoothly and effectively, says HR consultant Rachel Collar.
“It is about making sure the right people are in the right roles, communication is clear and everyone knows their part in the company’s larger mission.”
As businesses reflect on 2024 and plan for 2025, now is the perfect time to review how their teams are structured.
Are employees well-placed to deliver results?
Is communication between departments seamless?
Are decisions being made efficiently or are there bottlenecks that slow progress?
“One of the most common challenges we see is businesses operating with outdated structures that no longer serve their goals,” said Rachel, owner of HR consultancy Haus of HR, based in Towcester. “By realigning teams and workflows, businesses can streamline operations and boost performance.”
Organisational design does. not stop at reshuffling employees. It also encompasses systems and processes, she added. Effective structures ensure that the business is poised to move towards its strategic objectives without unnecessary friction and engaging with HR experts for organisational design may be the missing piece of the puzzle.
“Improving how your teams collaborate can have a transformative effect on overall productivity and morale.”
